Well, how hard could it be to learn? Itís preposterous your defense for ignorance is just you weren't taught it. Oceania sounds better regardless, Australia just invites geographic jokes or colonial jokes about prisoners.

actually there are 4 to 7 continents depending on how you look at itif there are 4 it would be Afro-Eurasia,America,Australia and Antarcticathis would be using the definition that a continent is a large, continuous, discrete mass of land usually separated by water as Africa, Asia and Europe are separated and neither is north and south Americahowever the way i learned it was 7 continents which are each on continental platesalso Australia is sometimes called Australasia or Oceania to include the other islands near Australia

Clearly regular walking is better than riding a dragon. When asked without setting a location and time period most people would automatically think of their normal lives and stick with what they're comfortable with.. Regular walking allows us to blend into the crowd and go about our activities, scrupulous or otherwise. A dragon draws too much attention, and distances you people you may want to meet and interact with.. Also there's only so much room on a dragon so you may not be able to bring all your friends.. >.>;;

Also, for this poll.. Clearly I am a researcher living in Antarctica for the next five years drilling for ice cores.. >.>;;; No..? Fine, fine.. I'm some where in North America. :3

Seems like the world doesn't not agree on how many continents there are. I was taught 5 (continents) in school (but that was when we were taught that there were 9 planets in our solar system and that was years ago...).

I am at a disbelief people are connecting from antarctica. Just do an IP lookup of the poll goers (assuming they aren't behind a proxy) and compare it to the poll results. Even if there were only two options like earth or space people would still vote for space in sheer jest of the system.

I live in Panama. It's supposed to be part of America, but since that is not an option, I won't vote... I wouldn't say I'm near Colombia because it's really dangerous to cross the border, so you usually travel by plane and the ticket it's nearly as expensive as the ticket to Canada. Ok, maybe I'm exaggerating a bit...

I was taught Europe, Asia, America (North and South), Africa, Australasia, and Antarctica were the continents in school. Though usually North and South America are separated in the news and other things. Conventionally a continent should be a large, continuous landmass, but then that leaves out the island countries, and Greenland is considered an island despite it being bigger than Australia (which is seen as a continent), so given that no one seems to be able to decide on an exact definition of exactly what constitutes as a continent, I guess the 7 continent teaching popular in most of the English-speaking world, as well as Western-Europe, China and India (so pretty much most of the educated population of the planet) is probably the best to go by. Still, I imagine this topic will always be somewhat controversial, like so many things.

Why can't people understand that people are taught different things... "The answer is definite."? Just, what the flying fuck. It's a poll... On a manga forum. No need to shove your (what you think is) "correct" knowledge on others.

Eurasia is misleading to be put together. Europe has long been considered a western culture whereas Asia has always been known as an eastern culture. I don't understand why people would learn of the two to be together. If so, then would I be known as Eurasian American? That's strange. But I suppose if this is based off of continental plates, then I suppose you guys should also be arguing for Indo-Australia since it's one plate just like Eurasia is.
